Python web framework

Source code

Flask is a lightweight [WSGI] web application framework. It is designed to make getting started quick and easy, with the ability to scale up to complex applications. It began as a simple wrapper around [Werkzeug] and [Jinja], and has become one of the most popular Python web application frameworks. Flask offers suggestions, but doesn't enforce any dependencies or project layout. It is up to the developer to choose the tools and libraries they want to use. There are many extensions provided by the community that make adding new functionality easy. The Pallets organization develops and supports Flask and the libraries it uses. In order to grow the community of contributors and users, and allow the maintainers to devote more time to the projects, [please donate today]. See our [detailed contributing documentation][contrib] for many ways to contribute, including reporting issues, requesting features, asking or answering questions, and making PRs.
